Places to go, errands to run, gifts to buy. That’s my motto in the days leading up to Christmas, at least. Holiday shopping is not for the weak of heart; my M.O. is typically get in + get out as quickly as possible.
What sort of outfit aids a holiday shopping excursion? Stretchy + faded denim, a pair of Nike Roshe Runs, and a roomy car coat thrown over the top. Moody color palette, a sweater + coat to keep warm, and shoes built for pivoting around slow-movers.
How is your holiday shopping going? Are you all done? I’m about 95% done; just need to pick up a few more things this week and I should be set. I can’t believe Christmas is about a week and a half away!
$300 Tory Burch Giveaway

I love those kicks!! I have a slight obsession with black sneakers especially when they have white and pink accents! Such a fun look!!

Ahhh I love those Nikes. I’ve wanted them for ages because somehow they make sneakers look so cool. Perfect for Christmas errands! Love the colorblock coat. The struggle is real with the grey hair…
Those sneakers!! I’m obsessed! That is a pretty perfect holiday shopping outfit! I hope you made good dent in your shopping list.

You and I have the same mission: get in and get out (and for the love, don’t get stuck behind a slow walker). There is no need for lingering or “window shopping” during gift shopping! I nearly had a panic attack last time I went to Oak Park haha.
I love to shop but HATE holiday shopping because of the slow walkers and crazy crowds! And people are so RUDE! I online shop most of my gifts this time of year- and when I do have to go out, it’s definitely as quick as possible!
I have those shoes too and seriously love them!! Crossing my fingers for this fabulous giveaway.. I would use it to buy a new pair of revas!! http://www.amemoryofus.com
Yes, you must have the perfect shoes to get around slow movers! Love your outfit, it’s adorable and hope that your mission to finish Christmas shopping goes smoothly!
This outfit is perfect for Holiday shopping! I love that color block jacket – super cute! The sneaks are adorable as well!

I am basically wearing the exact same outfit today. For realz! I have on those exact nikes with an entire dark look and a very similar wool car coat. I am telling you… reading my mind with your posts. xo, Amanda
Great coat, girl! I love the color-blocking! And AWESOME giveaway!
I’m so behind this year and still have almost half of my shopping to do! I love your color block coat! Such a cute, casual look!

Okay what is your secret for always looking so cool? I have a gray coat, tennis shoes, and jeans- and I NEVER look this cool! LOL!
I’ve been obsessed with Nike roshe’s for like 7 months now- I need a pair so bad! I love how you wore them here with a basic neutral outfit- so chic!
You look great! And this is such a great give-away!
